Those born in the Year of the Goat are calm, dependable, and like being in groups. Devoted to their beliefs, Goats won't hesitate to defend their opinions. Goats will often create groups to care for. They live life as if it were a form of art.

One sees those qualities in Soundwave, whose group of cassette spies is one of the most feared Decepticon units. The logical signal-stealer has proven one of the few allies Megatron can trust. But beneath his calm exterior lies a maze of circuits buzzing at peak efficiency, processing thousands of terabytes of incoming data in a single nanoklik. To Soundwave, the crackling static of an encrypted transmission is like music to his audio processors.
